Submission call from me! (something I rarely do anymore) | Nice Mommy~Evil Editor So Carina Press keeps me pretty busy on the admin (and travel, omg, the travel!) side of things and it doesn’t leave me a lot of time for editing. I still do some editing, but it’s generally not much more than one or two novels a year, and then the holiday novella collections. I’m looking to acquire a few things for my own schedule for Fall 2012. Here’s what I’m specifically looking for: A contemporary romance trilogy or series. A new paranormal romance (or urban fantasy w/romantic elements) series. A very, very hot erotic romance series. So the trend here is that I’m looking for an author/authors I can build within a series in these particular genres. If you have something now, or in the coming weeks/months that fits the bill, please follow the submissions guidelines here, and send to the submissions address. Edit: I’ve had some questions about subbing an idea or partial. Tags: Carina Press, Editing, submissions

A movie trailer is a perfect summarizing activity. It can also act as a “teaser” as an introduction to a presentation or student paper. A movie trailer includes many of the literacy areas. The movie trailer component of the iMovie app for the iPad includes several themes to pick from. The first step in making an iMovie movie trailer is taking a look at the script and storyboard pages. One great site by Timothy Jefferson includes PDFs of all of the theme scripts so students can work things out on paper first, as they are going through the development process. Some ideas for using movie trailers across the curriculum include: You can also find many tutorials which include instructions on the process of using iMovie movie trailers on the iPad From MacLife (written)From Make Use Of (written)From Pasco Schools (video)From Jim Gates (video)
ThoughtLead | A Digital Influence Collaborative Shelf Media Group SlushPile Hell My novel is actually an instructional booklet for peace for world peace, in the form of a novel, in the form of a mystery, adventure, suspense novel. A drama. And this is a rejection letter, in the form of a letter of rejection. I have contacted you as I wish to request two things of you.1) If you could read and give me a review plus a rating on the basis of ‘5 stars’ about what you think of this book. Thanks for making this easy. First of all, I must warn you that I am violating your rules of submission…. Stop right there. I have read or glanced through some of the books you have agented over the last few years and we are impressed by the quality and focus of some of them whose lines and harmonics challenge the descriptive resources of language. Dear Mom and Dad, you were right. I feel my book would be perfect for Penguin, Random House, or Simon & Schuster. Sorry, I’ve never heard of those publishers. To whom it may concern: it is an honor to contact your world famous literary agency.
